Scenic Tours by Escorted Rail

Visually stunning scenic train tours

Those who hear the call of the wild will find our scenic train
tours to their taste. These tours, focused on beautiful scenery,
are visual smörgåsbords. We enjoy unsurpassed views from
our trains and our resorts are in some of the most magnificent
locations. Our excursion programme continues to impress with a
stunning range of scenery and wildlife on our guided scenic
train tours.

The smörgåsbord is a perfect analogy for our
scenic train tours. Each has its own theme, or flavour, which
varies by region but they are bound together by a dedication to
sample some of the world's finest scenes. Unlike other modes of
transport, journeying by train allows travellers time to relax and
focus on the view. In a car there are always distractions (like
driving!) but the train is a perfect vehicle for enjoying the
panoramic views, which makes our scenic train tours the
perfect touring holiday.
